Biggest lesson i learnt in 2024 in the stock market is that nobody knows what is going to happen next, so practice some humility and low a strategy with a long term edge.
Uncertainty... it took me 5 years to stop trying to predict what’s about to happen in market based on charts studying, cause you never know. not having a mentor cost me 5 years of pain I learn to go we’re the market is wanting to go and keep it simple with discipline.
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Julianne Iwersen-Niemann” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
Professional managers tend to issue bearish analysis because they want to sell their non-market-correlated financial products. It's why so many of the most famous investment managers are always bearish, but wrong. They want to make investors think that indexing is *over* and the only way to make a return is through active management.
So any negative predictions are them trying to scare people away from investing? No. The US market has bad decades every so often. This might be one of them for the reasons they list.
Goldman said in 2007 before the largest crash in history that the market was going full steam ahead. In other words, Goldman have no better guess than shaking a dice or tossing a coin.
One way to look at it is that the stock market is over valued. The other way is that I am allocating a portion of my money into the most successful, valuable, innovative companies in the world.
Always be buying into a well diversified index fund portfolio, never interrupt compounding by selling and don't pay attention to the naysayers. Killing it since 2015, thanks for the reminder and your content sir!
If in doubt, do nout! Just sit on your hands and get on with life, there’s more to it than the market. That said, there have been lost decades in the market, most recently from 2000-2010 (ish). So to my mind the best approach is reflect on your investor objectives, things like risk capacity and appetite. Then have your portfolio set up appropriately. If we do get a lost decade, you’re set up for it; if we don’t, you’re set up for that, too. One other bit of wisdom: “more money has been lost waiting for a crash than in them”. Not being invested in some capacity is a certain road to ruin through inflation! Happy investing!
It would be interesting to see a video of you imprinting the previous 10 years performance of the magnificent 7 over the future 10 years and see how much they would be worth, how much market share they would have, price to earning etc. I think if people looked at this data then they would see that the current performance is unlikely to continue in the same way. Great content as always.
The question is: What is the intention of Goldman Sachs to release such a marketing blabla..? what do they want to sell to potential customers when saying the return will be around 3%?
Well I am sure that they will convince people they know where the bigger returns will be. They have to try and justify their fees and stay relevant in the media
@@TobyNewbattExactly this. ALWAYS ask the possible motivation behind people with money in the game. PLUS - why would people invest and pay fees with GS if they will gain nothing. Smells fishy to me.
@@wl660 because if you're paying high fees it's generally active management rather than passive indexing so you'd be expecting them to find the diamonds in the rough that outperform rather than their given 3% numerical return from s&p500
When you consider how easy it is to jump in and out of a stock these days, looking at historical data pre “easy exit”… probably skews the behavioural data significantly
I agree Toby, past performance is no indicator of future performance… in financial markets…. Where I think past performance is an indicator of future performance, is human behaviour, which you touched on when considering future GDP. Again, I agree companies and markets have changed over the years, former behemoths considered too big to fail/will be here forever, did fail and are now gone… the same will likely happen with companies around today, at a different pace but will happen. Whatever the performance of a company, the data and analysis from the geniuses at GS, JPM etc the one thing we can depend on is the irrational nature of human beings. With markets/PE’s so high, so much bearish analysis/news around, inevitably there will be some trigger that pushes investors to panic and sell… and thus the market falls… when?.. today, tomorrow, next year??? who knows, but it will happen, it is inevitable.
Question: assuming a 10 years investment, Would it be better to invest in a savings account that gives you a 5% yearly paid daily, or an ETF accumulation that performs an average of the 3% per year?
great video Toby. If US interest rates go lower IE lower than any 'baked in' levels that the market (already) expects, then surely the stock market (the S&P) will have another decent year .. and if all is reasonably well in 2025 (with the US economy), that will continue in 2026 as well. As you say, stoking uncertainly makes Goldman, as a broker, more money (so its best to largely, or entirely, ignore them, and the other 'noise makers'
My advice, forget the balance sheets, the forecasts and other ramblings. Base your trading on being patient for specific setups that offer a promising risk to reward relative to your capital exposure, good money management and be in tune with the markets ebbs and flows such as when trends are at risk....
Toby, you say this report won’t change how you invest, but can I ask you,if you were now at the stage of drawing down on your investments to provide an income would you then change what you are investing in? Ie change to income stocks rather than growth stocks? Thanks in advance.
@@ianfraser4 great question Ian. Yes of course when in retirement you need to think differently. My plan would be to hold around 2/3 years of cash in high interest/ money market funds. The rest remains invested in low cost index funds. Moving from ‘growth’ to ‘income’ stocks is a false economy. We will have decades left to invest in just invest in the total market.
I must admit , the bigger my portfolio gets the more worried I get about losing a big chuck of it . I know the correct thing to do is just leave it alone and ignore the noise but headlines can spook you. In 2018 people were saying the S&P 500 was nearing the top even back then and it has doubled in price since , who knows what will happen
Don’t ignore the gold rush, Theres a reason institutions are filling up. Market is due a significant correction, lots of wars and potential more wars developing, us elections etc. long term investments should be fine but could be a bit rough over the short term in the coming months, hold on to your hats and keep some powder dry for potential bargains
Analysts were saying the same over a decade ago, vanguard 2 years ago had US large caps at returning low single digits yet the last 2 years have seen double digit returns. No one knows what the future holds but literally the same things have been said every year. If it concerns you then diversify across a range of differing assets and differing geographic markets.
If a prognosticator is bearish, and then turns out to be wrong, people rarely hold that against them since they are happy with the positive surprise...set expectations low.
Good video. You make great comments about how we cannot predict market returns over any period of time. The 3% per annum prediction by Goldman Sachs may well not turn out to be true. Yet, how many times do we see TH-cam videos or comments elsewhere stating as fact that the S&P 500 will return a given percentage per annum, often quoted as greater than 10%? Ultimately, I don't think any of this is predictable, just as no-one was predicting Japan's lost decades when they were enjoying the performance of the stock market in 1989.
If you look on youtube how many youtubers are saying the the market is going to crash you would have to sell every month and they where always wrong. Nobody can predict the market. I will keep DCA every month no matter what happens.
The best way to make money in investing is to take a small percentage from a lot of people at regular intervals. Everthing else is marketing to manipulate your behaviour.
Great video and sound advice on not changing any ongoing investment. However, as someone with a large one-off sum that I wish to start investing with, the state of the market makes me hesitant to invest. Would you apply the same advice to my situation as for those regularly investing each month?
Yep Toby, they said the same thing 10 years ago and boy were they wrong! I didn't follow their "expert" advice then and I don't plan to follow it now. I do think that spreading investments over money market, bonds, and US stocks is still the best plan as all of our crystal balls are effectively opaque. Choose the mix of these that suits your volatility tolerance and timeline. Two other points to consider as we look forward: - The US national debt is eye watering and recent interest rate hikes have caused interest payments alone to become the 2nd highest line item in the federal budget. This is unsustainable and I expect a gradual easing of interest rates and monetary policy to allow higher inflation. It is a very time tested way many governments have used to "inflate" their way out of crushing national debt with a hidden inflationary tax of around 5% rather than raising tax rates over the screaming of voters who want lower taxes. As a result I expect money market rates and bond interest to fall over time as inflation rises. - Productivity has risen exponentially since the invention of the steam engine as more work can be accomplished by each individual worker. This has driven GDP forward and is the secret sauce to index funds as productivity increases drive the GDP upwards. I expect automation and perhaps AI to continue this trend of exponential GDP growth, at least in the US. There will be ups and downs, bull markets and bear markets, and variable P/E ratios over time but in the long run, index funds still look like a place I want to be over the next 10 years and more. Cheers!
What they are missing is every day more people are finding out about stocks now its super easy to invest on your phone into Roths and ISAs. So i reckon we good for the standard 10%. Thanks for the advise but NO.
No it's not, it's why you don't listen to pump and dump merchants like Goldman, people have been screaming they will rotate out of the USA for 2 years and were completely wrong

The worry is when you look at the charts from early 2000 Dow, Nasdaq or S&P and look how many years it took to get back up to the peak again. Are we gonna have that again this time around? Time will tell.

It's never a bad time to start. My only regret is starting at 35 years old. I wish I'd started 10 years earlier. (I'm 28.4% up at present. I started just over two years ago.)
Just trying to get people to sell and buy something else then start all over again. All the big investors that I've seen ask how much the S&P 500 will make in the next 10 years give pretty much the same answer 4% seems like an in joke 😂 Anyway that market goes in one direction and in 10 years there will be 2 billion new humans that need to buy stuff.
@TobyNewbatt along those lines, it seems certain companies dominate the S&P for a decade or two until there is a "changing of the guard" I feel like the change in dominance happens more in waves from time-to-time, rather that slowly, steadily, as would be the default assumption. Haven't seen any analysis on this.

Would a „quality“ filter be a better option than world ETF?
I am already maxing my pension now need to max my ISA too😃
tottaly unrelated to the news reported in your video hhaha but did you get a new screen?
Tony, as a TH-camer yourself, do you think Google (youtube) is a good stock to invest in long term? Will the platform continue to grow in your opinion? Thanks
I do think TH-cam has a long way ahead of itself - and Google has a huge moat. In my index funds I own quite a lot of it already :P
Love it!
I’m relatively recently retired. Given sequencing risk and my experience of the recent (2 years ago?) market drop I have been tempted to buy an annuity. In my situation I feel right now I “have enough”. And the fear is over-riding greed. Anyway not sure if that’s different enough to go against your advice which is good!! I feel a bout of over thinking coming on!! Thank you
Is investing in US treasury or bonds, just lending money to the government or organisation for a guaranteed % return? Effectively us lending them money?
I’ve got a couple of questions ‘Toby’. Who is Bill on your website? What qualifications do you have? Your bio states you have gained experience in the last few year, in what capacity? Doing what?
lol Bill is a generic text I’m building my website at the moment it used to look very different 😂. Its a template for the website builder I’m on 😅
@ oh ok. Just for clarification then, could you offer replies to the remaining three questions?
ive just started investing, and i hope this isn't a bad time to start.
It's never a bad time to start. My only regret is starting at 35 years old. I wish I'd started 10 years earlier. (I'm 28.4% up at present. I started just over two years ago.)
Google what GS was saying in 2013/2014.
Ignore the analyst DCS and BtDF
I was once within an environment of huge wealth. I never saw panic just a bit of oh well every now and then
I find this information from GS being as useful as a CHOCOLATE TEAPOT!
Dollars used to b backed by gold, they are not now. Apples and oranges
If enough people believe that something told will happen it will happen
If you build it they will come
Just trying to get people to sell and buy something else then start all over again. All the big investors that I've seen ask how much the S&P 500 will make in the next 10 years give pretty much the same answer 4% seems like an in joke 😂
Anyway that market goes in one direction and in 10 years there will be 2 billion new humans that need to buy stuff.
My question is though… who do we think will be the Nokia of 2024 a decade from now? 😂
Hahah and THAT is the million dollar question
@TobyNewbatt along those lines, it seems certain companies dominate the S&P for a decade or two until there is a "changing of the guard" I feel like the change in dominance happens more in waves from time-to-time, rather that slowly, steadily, as would be the default assumption. Haven't seen any analysis on this.
@@chavocanuck It's just not that simple nor is it predictable..which is the whole point :) - anything can happen.
Nokia, Blackberry and Xerox are all still around today, just not as big

That report is pure clownshow
Analysts always review their expectations.
So its not a final thought
Invest..low cost indexes..gorget about it..cone back in ten years.
Agreed 👍🏾
Is it a surprise that GS are trying to fud future returns in the market, I wonder what they would have to gain by causing just a bit more panic.. 🙃
As an investment manager you have to be 'seen' to know what you are talking about and convince people that you know better..if you cause panic you cause people to take action and this is all good for them, especially if they come to you for advice.
The further predictions are made into the future, each year the error rate of their prediction compounds. Therefor the further in the future, the more inaccurate.
Not saying it can't happen, but less and less likely.
On a more personal note, I don't even bother if it's 2 or 3 years into the future at all for any subject
Wealth management business says you should pay them more money - gotcha
Always more! 😂
VWRP to mitigate?
Globally diversified set of investments...what more can you do :)
@@TobyNewbatt Sounds like a plan, I'm well into it and it's doing me well so far
BRICS is shaking up the global financial scene and this is just the start. As more countries join in, we could see a real shift away from Western dominance. It’s an exciting time that might change the way we think about money and power!
Not. A. Chance
people have been saying that for years so lets look at what has happened:
Russia has shot themselves in the foot and is no longer a global power
South Africa is in economic ruin
India is doing pretty good but still miles behind most countries
China is slowing down and depends on western business for their economy
Brazil is doing fine but not excelling and is involved with the west anyway
doesn't look that stunning to me
GS went bust and had to be bailed out they didn’t see that coming
Get a real job. Everybody is betting on SP500. It can not lose because it represents everybody this side of the world. Unless everybody in the West starts investing in China, SP500 is not going anywhere but up.
Ignore everything and carry on the same
Goldman: corporate profits is likely to decelerate...*translation* Goldman thinks corporate price gouging and shrinkflation has hit saturation point and will plateau. Meanwhile....
Corporations: hold my beer.....
It’s almost as if Goldman Sachs want to manage your money for you
